Super Bowl 51 Recap and Jim Rome

The Falcons lost Super Bowl 51 more than the Patriots won it

Did the Patriots win this game or did the Falcons lose it? Ooh, I think they lost it. I think the Falcons lost it. All they had to do, there was two key points in the game... If you just run the ball straight up the middle, don't even gain a yard... now it's a two-score game with four minutes left. That's a lot harder for the Patriots to come back on that.

James White should have been the Super Bowl 51 MVP over Tom Brady

James White had a great game. Getting in on the fun. He should have been MVP. He had three touchdowns. He was all over the field. They had no answer for him. Tom Brady did the old Brett Favre. It was a participation trophy for Tom Brady. It was a lifetime achievement award.

Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time

That's why he's the greatest quarterback of all time. No, we can say he is the greatest quarterback of all time.

Kyle Shanahan was too focused on his new head coaching job with the 49ers during the Super Bowl

Kyle Shanahan, was he too focused on his new job? Absolutely. Yes. His mind was on West Coast time. No doubt.

Roger Goodell is back after taking his medicine from Patriots fans

The boos that were rained down on Roger Goodell... He stood up there. He overdosed on his medicine. I think he's back. I think it's now fair's fair.

David Stern was a worse commissioner than Roger Goodell

Which commissioner do you think has done a worse job, Roger Goodell or David Stern when he got into that beef with you? Yeah, that's going to be a tough call, David Stern. Yeah. Stern was not happy with me that day... If you're asking me which one's worse, it's Stern.

Every game in sports history is fixed

My take is, I don't know for certain, which is why I asked the question. Everything in the history of the world is fixed. Every game is fixed. Everything is fixed.

Michael Jordan is better than LeBron James because he has the clutch gene

LeBron is a fraud. He's a hot fraud. Michael Jordan's all that. He's an all that guy. Get your 32, 11, 6, bank it. More importantly, clutch gene.

Lady Gaga's Super Bowl halftime performance was stellar

Lady Gaga's halftime performance, which was stellar, by the way. Anyone who hated that, get out of my face. Stop listening to this show.

Terrell Owens not being in the Hall of Fame is the biggest joke of all time

But seriously, T.O. not being in the Hall of Fame is probably the biggest joke of all time. What is he, second most in reception yards?

The Atlanta Falcons might not actually be good

Are the falcons good? I don't know... they had some bad losses. They lost the chiefs, the chargers too, right?... The Falcons might not be good. Actually, if you look at the first half of the Super Bowl, they were good. Second half, not so good. You know what I'm doing? I'm crossing them off my list.

Mark Wahlberg leaving the Super Bowl early was a bad move

Marky Mark, Miami Heat fan slash New England Patriot fan. Left in, what, like 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter? Yeah, he left really early... how about you respect your favorite player, I assume, Tom Brady, and his ability to come back in a game. That's a bad look... that was a fucked up move for you to leave.
